Sealing and wrapping - machinery and equipment - Import export

Hugo Beck can claim a decade-long development tradition when it comes to automation. We offer support with our expertise throughout the entire automation process, from project planning and manufacture right through to integration into complex packaging lines. Handling systems such as portals, grouping solutions, stacking and counting devices, cross pusher to name but a few, are integrated reliably into the packaging solutions by our technicians. Furthermore, various robots systems are used across many industries for the automated feeding of products, helping to for example grip, position, stack, group, stage products. From a parallel robot (also known as a spider robot) all the way through to a SCARA robot – anything is flexibly possible and delivered fully integrated according to each customer‘s needs. Both robots and handling systems can all be purchased independently of Hugo Beck packaging machines.

Sleever wrappers operate with an upper and a lower film and are ideal in quickly providing heavy, large products with a safe protective packaging and/or transit packaging. Our robust sleeve wrappers are perfectly accessible from both sides. The lateral film unwinding units enable a quick and user-friendly roll change. As the product's sides remain open, film use is minimised. As an option, the BP 800 features an ultrasonic height detection system, enabling Hugo Beck's flexible banderoling machines to wrap products with a width of up to 800 mm and a height of up to 400 mm in film. In addition to our standard sleeve wrappers, special banderoling machines for special applications such as the stretch-banding of carton blanks are also part of the Hugo Beck portfolio.

Items that have initially been bagged using a machine from Hugo Beck often need to be shrunk so as to ensure a tight-fitting film and the perfect packaging finish to meet the highest standards. Adapted for each packaging system, we supply the appropriate shrink tunnel in all sizes and performance ranges for the production of high-quality shrink packaging. As such, we manufacture shrink tunnels in a number of versions, with a variety of rods and chains that operate like a link mesh belt. Textile mesh belts are also possible for very light products. In each case, the length of the shrink tunnel depends on the speed of packaging and on the film material selected. State-of-the-art air ducting and heat recovery ensure efficient energy use, helping us to contribute to both protection of the environment and reducing energy costs. The decision on whether to use a shrink tunnel with circulating air or convection principle is defined depending on the individual product application of the customer.

Our fully automatic flowpack machines are suitable either for high-speed applications or airtight packaging requirements, depending on the version selected. The machines feature either rotating or box motion transversal sealing units, with selection of a longitudinal seam either above or below. Each machine can be combined with a wide range of feed systems, such as finger conveyor chains or infeed belts. With our ability to handle everything from PP or aluminium laminated films through to Tyvek® – anything is possible. PE-coated paper can also be used for flowpack production. Our flowpack machines are also available as hygienically designed versions.

Paper or film? Stay flexible! A single machine can now deliver both film and paper packaging applications. The continuous Form Fill and Seal Machines paper X hybrid are designed for packaging goods in paper or film. A simple changeover ensures you are ready for the new product and the new packaging material. Whether using a chain infeed or infeed conveyor, the machines stand apart through their continuous packaging process – without stop-and-go – maximising efficiencies by ensuring there is no downtime when sealing or glueing. Our paper packaging solutions are available in different versions, depending on how flexible you need to be: - the basic model paper X features paper packaging with overlap on top - the paper X hybrid features paper and film packaging with overlap on top - the paper X hybrid advance features paper and film packaging with overlap on top and side seal

The continuous Form Fill and Seal machines of the servo X series are available in five performance ranges and numerous variants. They cover the broadest possible range of horizontal film packaging applications for various industries – and all this with maximum modularity. The machines can be configured individually and thus meet all requirements for the desired performance or type of packaging. Depending on the machine variant, several packaging styles can be flexibly produced with one machine. Whether chain infeed or infeed conveyor, servo X machines win over with their continuous packaging process and no stop-and-go, meaning dead time is not an issue when sealing. Besides high performance, this enables extremely tight-fitting and precise packaging with a saving in film of up to 15 %. This ensures that the film packaging‘s excellent appearance is unrivalled.

The high-performance and extremely flexible intermittent Form Fill and Seal machine flexo H is particularly suitable for film packaging of wood and similar long parts from 800 mm in length, such as parquet or laminate, mouldings, wood or laminated wood, furniture parts or doors. It takes just five minutes to deal with a pallet of laminate. Similarly, our flexible packaging machines are ideal for similar length products, including skis and snowboards, spirit levels, rolled goods, steel pipes, and many more items.

The intermittent Form Fill and Seal machines flexo 500/700 Push are pusher-machines that wrap difficult products with ease, such as glass bottles in bundles or salt and pepper shakers. They collect and group the products in order to subsequently push them into the film. In order to ensure that no products tilt over, our machines maintain physical contact with the articles to be packaged until they are safely in the bag. The transversal sealing unit is designed as an intermittent version and processes a wide range of films and product dimensions. The packaging style features a bottom overlap.

With the paper e-com fit you are optimally equipped to meet the demands of sustainable paper packaging for the e-commerce, mail order and logistics sectors. Whether dealing with the direct dispatch of individual goods, packing groups of products or meeting the complex requirements of returned goods packaging for example, the paper e-com fit packs goods with a minimum use of paper. Both uncoated and coated recyclable papers can be used for producing precisely fitting paper bags with two sewn sides plus a top overlap. The shipping bag size is automatically adapted to the varying product dimensions in length and width during production. Thus, different product sizes can be packaged in a jumble. Furthermore, the packaging machine offers the possibility of storing two paper rolls of different widths. After the product scan, the machine then decides how wide the paper web must be and selects one of the two paper rolls. This minimises paper use.

With the flexo 700 e-com you are optimally equipped to meet the demands of film packaging for the e-commerce, mail order and logistics sectors. Whether dealing with the direct dispatch of individual goods, packing groups of products or meeting the complex requirements of returned goods packaging for example, the flexo 700 e-com packs goods with a minimum use of film and automatically adjusts the film bags to the product‘s length as standard. To support the precise fitting of shipping bags, the flexo 700 e-com fit model also adjusts the bag size to the product's width so that the machines fully automatically adjust to varying product sizes during the packaging process. Additional options include the ability to add an easy-opening perforation to the bags as well as inserting a double-sided adhesive tape for resealing a bag for returns.

The intermittent film packaging machine flexo 700 scores similarly to the basic modell flexo 500 with maximum versatility and flexibility, but is designed for the packaging of large format products with a width of up to 680 mm. Whether shoe boxes, boards, shelves, ladders, ironing tables, large calendars, pots, tissue rolls, insulating mats, etc., you are instantly equipped for any kind of large format application with this machine – daily changing orders, for example. The flexo 700 features a side-sealing unit. The transversal sealing unit is designed as an intermittent version and processes a wide range of films, dimensions and products.

The intermittent Form Fill and Seal Machine flexo 500 scores with maximum versatility and flexibility even in its basic configuration.
